Excerpt from the paper:

Using recent data, this paper evaluates the current and future early learning and child care situation in Saskatchewan using the key policy issues of access, quality and financing to place Saskatchewan's ELCC in the overall Canadian context. It further argues that the idea that ensuring consistently high quality and wide accessibility in ELCC programs requires a carefully designed high quality early learning and child care system. The paper identifies the elements of such a system and then makes suggestions about steps that Saskatchewan should take to begin to meet the "QUAD" principles committed to as the basis for the early learning and child care program.
